Schools

South Tahoe High School

South Tahoe High School was founded in 1952 in South Lake Tahoe.[7] The school mascot is the Viking and the school's colors are blue and gold. Its enrollment is the highest of any school that belongs to LTUSD, at 984 in 2014.[2] The school's campus was originally at the current South Tahoe Middle School, but it was later moved to its present location.[8] The current school was built in an open-air style with most of the buildings not connected to each other with hallways. The Angora Fire came within a quarter mile of the high school in June 2007. Dozens of firefighters had to surround the school to defend it from the flames.[9]

From 2009, the school began a $64.5 million venture to renovate many of their facilities and completed their goals by 2013.[10] In the summer of 2011, the school began constructing a new student union, a new art building (Tahoe Arts Design Academy) and began rebuilding their "Viking Stadium."[11][12] The Tahoe Arts Design Academy was modeled after a Hollywood studio and features a 300-seat theatre.[13] Ivone Larson, the principal of South Tahoe 2006–2014, was promoted to assistant superintendent[4] and Chad Houck took over as the current principal.[14]

South Tahoe Middle School

South Tahoe Middle School is the only middle school that belongs to LTUSD. The school's mascot is the timberwolf. Its enrollment was 817 in 2014.[2] Its campus does not feature an open-air style campus, unlike South Tahoe High School. The current track was built in 2007 after a $250,000 donation was given to the school by Ray Sidney, a former Google Engineer.[15]

Elementary schools

LTUSD has three traditional schools (Bijou Community School, Sierra House Elementary, and Tahoe Valley Elementary) and one magnet elementary school (Environmental Magnet School, located in Meyers, which (as its name suggests, along with its location near Lake Tahoe) has a special focus on environmental sciences).[16]
